FAQs

Are these bottles safe for hot beverages?

Yes, the glass is designed to handle both hot and cold beverages. However, exercise caution when pouring hot liquids and avoid sudden extreme temperature changes.

Can I put these bottles in the dishwasher?

The glass bottles themselves are dishwasher safe. However, the cork stoppers must be hand washed separately.

What is the recommended way to clean the cork stopper?

Gently hand wash the cork stopper with mild soap and water. It's crucial to allow it to air dry completely before reinserting it into the bottle to prevent odors or mold.

Are these bottles suitable for carbonated drinks?

No, these bottles are not recommended for carbonated beverages. The cork stopper does not provide an airtight seal required for carbonation and could lead to pressure build-up or leakage.

What are the dimensions of the bottles?

The bottles have a 2-liter capacity. Specific dimensions are not provided, but they feature an ultra-wide mouth for easy filling and pouring.

Can I use these bottles for storing cleaning supplies?

Yes, they are suitable for storing laundry liquids like detergent and fabric softener, as well as other household cleaning solutions. Ensure they are clearly labeled if used for cleaning products.

How many bottles come in this pack?

This product is a 2-pack, meaning you will receive two carafe glass bottles with cork stoppers.

Troubleshooting

Cork stopper does not fit snugly

Ensure the cork stopper is completely dry. If it is new, it may need to be inserted firmly a few times to create a better seal. If the cork appears damaged, consider replacing it.

Cloudy glass after washing

If using a dishwasher, the cloudiness may be due to hard water or detergent residue. Try using a dishwasher cleaner or hand wash the bottle with a gentle detergent and rinse thoroughly.

Odor from cork stopper

Hand wash the cork stopper thoroughly with mild soap and allow it to air dry completely in a well-ventilated area. Do not soak the cork. For persistent odors, consider a diluted vinegar rinse, followed by thorough drying.

Bottle leaks when tilted

Ensure the cork stopper is fully inserted and creating a tight seal. Check the rim of the bottle for any debris that might be preventing a proper seal. The bottles are not designed for 100% leak-proof transport if laid on their side.
